openDS - authentication using LDAP

Hi all,
I am trying to set up the open DS server .
Are there any advantages of the openDS server as compared to say Tivoli Ldap
Server or active directory server.
My main requirement is authentication using LDAP

OpenDS directory server has all functionalities inherited from Sun Directory Server (it's been designed and developed by the same team). It's highly scalable, very easy to install and manage and provides an efficient LDAP solution without the administrative headache. And it's fully open source.
But OpenDS development has been stopped by Oracle.
Luckily ForgeRock <www.forgerock.com> has taken on the development of the OpenDS code in a pure open source way, under the name of OpenDJ <opendj.org> or <opendj.forgerock.org>, the Open source LDAP Directory services in Java.
OpenDJ is fully supported by ForgeRock and is running in production with up to tens of millions of entries in various companies.
